Instructions
-
1
Add flour to a bowl
Add two cups of flour to a large bowl and also add a pinch of salt. Once the mixture settles in nicely, make a well in the flour so that you can see the bottom of the bowl clearly. -
2
Add eggs in the bowl
Take three eggs and drop them inside the well you have created. You can beat the eggs in a separate bowl before adding them to the flour. -
3
Mix water and oil
Now, mix some water and oil with the eggs and start spreading the flour on top of the liquid ingredients. -
4
Make the dough
Once you have covered the wet ingredients with flour, start mixing them with your hands. You can use the mixer too, but the former option is a lot better, as it will allow you to make perfect dough. -
5
Cover the dough with plastic sheet
You will now have to cover the dough with a plastic sheet for 15-20 minutes. Afterwards, remove the sheet and roll the dough. -
6
Cut strips from the rolled dough
Using a sharp knife, cut strips from the dough. You don’t have to worry about the shape of the strips, as they don’t make any difference to the overall taste. -
7
Allow the strips to dry
Let the strips dry for some time otherwise you will not be able to cook them properly, if there is moisture left in them. -
8
Boil and serve
Finally, you can boil the pasta and serve it to your family.
